You're the Guy I Want To Share My Money With is a double album released in 1981. The album is a collaboration by Laurie Anderson, John Giorno and William S. Burroughs, recorded during their "Red Night" spoken word tour of 1981. Released through Giorno Poetry Systems Institute, the album was funded in part by grants from the National Endowment for the Arts and the New York State Council on the Arts.
Most of Anderson's material came from her performance piece, United States, and some tracks, such as "It Was Up in the Mountains", would also be included in her later 5-LP release, United States Live. This was Anderson's first substantial album release (previously she had only contributed a track or two), and she followed this in 1982 with her first full solo album, Big Science.

You're the Guy I Want to Share My Money With was released on CD through Minneapolis-based East Side Digital, which acquired the Giorno Poetry Systems catalog in 1993.




An obscure 1981 release that only got anything approaching mainstream notice retroactively -- after Laurie Anderson's surprise breakthrough with 1982's Big Science and its unexpected hit single, "O Superman" -- this is a double-LP set featuring one side each of contributions from Anderson, poet John Giorno, and William S. Burroughs, plus a fourth side that had three lock grooves in it; depending on where the needle was placed, you'd hear more works by one of the three participants. (The 1993 CD simply puts each participant's extras at the end of their section.) Anderson's contributions are rough-sounding early versions of minor pieces that eventually ended up in her masterwork, United States I-IV, plus an early recording of "Born, Never Asked" that's lacking in comparison to the richer-sounding remake on Big Science. Burroughs' pieces are primarily of interest to die-hard Burroughs fans, as they come mostly from the era when he was simply reworking old manuscripts, and as a poet, John Giorno makes a pretty good small-press publisher. For completists only.
